(Abt 1810 - )

Ebenezer went west to Colorado and California with a brother. The brother came back and was told to give a message to Solomon's wife, "to come to him." The message did not get to her. When he did come back he got horses and a wagon and went back west with a lot of men to the 1849 California gold rush and was never heard from again.
